RunRickyRun Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Looks like a 1980s VHS. I doubt I'll buy it. Only bought the current gen as they were selling it for £130. I think I'll get a PC next. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark359 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 I have a ps3 at the moment and will probably upgrade to a ps4 or Xbox one at somepoint. I am not a massive gamer though, the only reason I went for ps3 was blu ray. Now that they both have that I think which one has the better media capabilities will appeal to me as the only games I really play tend to be released on both anyway. I didn't see the launch video but it seems to have gone down pretty badly from what I can tell. Aparantly sony's stock price has gone up following it, which can't have been what Microsoft had in mind! http://www.thesixthaxis.com/2013/05/21/sony-stock-price-jumps-8-following-xbox-one-event/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 http://www.computerandvideogames.com/407912/microsoft-confirms-pre-owned-fee-for-xbox-one/ But that doesn't mean used games are dead. In fact, Harrison told us, you'll be able to sell your Xbox One games online. "We will have a solution—we’re not talking about it today—for you to be able to trade your previously-played games online," Harrison said. The Xbox exec wouldn't give further details on how this system will work, but we're assuming that once you're done with a game, you can trade the code online and it will be erased from your machine. But what will you get? Other games? Microsoft Points? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwan Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Allegedly, you sell it at a reduced price but they still sell it new Really need to get a clamp down on all these different reports. Poor marketing on their part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3te Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 "The bits that are on that disc, you can give it to your friend and they can install it on an Xbox One," he said. "They would then have to purchase the right to play that game through Xbox Live." "They would be paying the same price we paid, or less?" we asked."Let’s assume it’s a new game, so the answer is yes, it will be the same price," Harrison said. from kotaku Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villarule123 Posted May 21, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted May 21, 2013 What happens if you DON'T install the game then? Can't you just play it off the disc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Looks ugly. Looks massive. Focus on casuals. Vague, conflicting and cagey info. Second hand stuff sounds dodgy. Overall, the only thing that hits me is that it looks and sounds crap. I'm out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Czechlad Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Wont be buying it. I think they are trying to do too much. I like my xbox 360 but the xbox one seems like a waste of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted May 21, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted May 21, 2013 (edited) I like it. I like it a lot. I've always thought Kinect was shite but I like what they're doing with it, specially with the integration of TV/Movies/Music. I think that reveal was far better than the PS4 reveal too. Definitely be buying one on launch. Though, COD was laughable. They're innovation for their new engine was sliding on the floor (could do it for years in Crysis), dynamic maps (be interesting how they implement this), and the ability to customize your character (could do that in Halo2!!!!). Just looked more of the same shite. Really interested to see Battlefield 4 on next gen. Edited May 21, 2013 by PieFacE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I'm going to hold out before making my mind up. If they make some sort of market place for me to sell/buy pre owned games and prices dictated my the people rather than MS. I think it would be a really good idea.
